Born in Cape Town, South Africa, I have traveled to many different countries working as an international school teacher. Following a bout with breast cancer and being ripped off yet again, I wrote a self-help book called Fear, Phobias and frozen Feet, which deals with how to break the pattern of bad relationships in our lives. Last year, I self-published Stop the world, I need to pee! It's a fictional tale of how a headstrong woman manages to escape from an abusive husband. Currently, I am teaching at an international school in Tanzania. The Case of Billy B is my third book.
